The goal of this task is to familiarize you with GIT, a core development tool.

Create an account on https://github.com and then follow the instructions in the Hello World tutorial (https://guides.github.com/activities/hello-world), where you will learn how to:

(1) Create and use a repository;

(2) Start and manage a new branch;

(3) Make changes to a file and push them to GitHub as commits; and

(4) Open and merge a pull request.

Once you have completed the tutorial, please:

(1) Create a new branch of your repository called "sugarlabs" (Please take note of the branch name you should be using to complete this task.);

(2) Edit the README.md file to include the phrase., "Hello Sugar Labs" along with some personal message that includes your name.

(3) Commit the change;

(4) Make a pull request for the change.

(5) Merge that branch back to your master branch.

(6) When you are done, please upload (or paste as a comment) the URL to your repository to complete this task.

Note that this is essentially the same workflow you will use for most of the coding tasks. Rather than creating a new repository, you will often be making a clone of an existing repository to which you will make your changes. Your pull requests will be to the original repository. Sugar Labs community members will do the final merge **, but your task will be complete once a mentor has signed off on your pull request.

** however, in this task, you should do the merge yourself.
